Want to use this as a cold shoe as opposed to $60 for a dedicated one. Any foreseeable problems? Hooking up a TASCAM DR-05 with adapter.

If the camera thinks there's a flash attached, you could put some thin tape over the bottom of the mic shoe. Don't know if that will work, though. You might be better off getting a right-angle adapter with a mounted cold shoe. The worst problem (with the 5N, at least) is that the sensor gets hot and the camera ultimately shuts down. If you get that warning, be sure to hit the Record button so it will save the file. If you just shut the camera off, you won't have anything.

mine didn't work with the flash I purchased. the flash is fine but they simply won't work together.

Hello J Dixon. What do you mean cold shoe? This turns the Sony "multi media" connection into a hot shoe. I used this to trigger a wireless flash system for my NEX 5N and it has been perfect! Not one problem. I wish I could say that with all the cheap Chinese flashes I've gone thru. What a joke! I hope this helps? I see you're going to use it with a mic? Not sure how you probably no better than i do

You will need to use a "Sync Cord" between the coldshoe/LED light and the camera. I found this product to be a little flimsy and would recommend the Alzo Transformer Dslr Rig, Handle And Extenders Kit- Multifunctional Camera Cage Bracket Incl. 3 Shoe Mounts, Height Extenders, Handle. by ALZO Digital

I am currently using this with no problem whatsoever, http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Replacement-Audio-Cable-for-Beats-by-Dr-Dre-Beats-Headphones-Aux-3-5mm-Jack-/271412765136?pt=AU_Electronics_Portable_Audio_Accessories&ha;sh=item3f317621d0.

Yes, this is the one for just about every TAScam, I have this with my DR-40 and it works great.

Yes it will work, what you have is a Multi interface shoe...meaning it's meant for Sony products only. For details on compatible "Sony" accessories of the Multi interface shoe, visit the Sony web site....when you do you'll find the operations with other manufacture's accessories are not guaranteed.If you use a shoe adaptor "this one" (sold separately), you can also use accessories compatible with an Active Interface Shoe. This is the best buy for the buck. It is made very well.

John, I have the MKE 600 and I love it. It is a great directional mic and it sounds clear. I would check out beachtek.com. I am not into photography, I am a video guy. I purchased a camcorder audio adapter from beachtek and I love it too. They are a small Canadian company. Call their tech support and leave a message. They will call you back and help you choose the best adapter for your setup. You can find a good price for their adapters on Amazon and B&H.;

Hi and thanks for your question! After doing a bit of research into foot controllers such as your Roland GA-FC, I would have to advise the no, this cable would NOT be correct for connecting such a device, as it does not have the required 1/4" TRS-style phone plugs you would need. Rather, it has standard, MONO 1/4" plugs, such as you would use to plug an electric guitar into a practice amp.Hope this helps! Thanks for asking!

No, because the camera already has the Minolta type shoe. So you don't really need the adapter.

I use this set up on a daily basis with a "Zalman" mic. The set-up works great, my only gripe would be both cables are verrryy long so it can be an annoyance. I currently do not use a amp or dac but I heard from a close friend using this with a Astro Mix-amp works very well. If I had to do it again, I would go with a MOD MIC 4.0 instead of the Zalman for the fact that you can clip it on the ear cup and flip it up when your done. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the replies. Will keep it in mind when I am ready to buy a headphone amp.

I don't see why not. I plug my JamUp plug from either an iPod or iPad into my Tascam recorder with it and have been recording with it. Give it a shot. If you find a better cable in the future, buy it too and keep this cable as a backup. More is better in my opinion.

This is a 'cold' shoe...in other words, there is no power or triggering of the flash available at all. If you will be using a wired or wireless remote to trigger the flash, then, yes....these will work with any flash. In my instance, I am using Saberstrip lights which have no flash mount inside. I have the cold shoe mounted inside the light, then attach a flash to it, and wire it to a remote receiver outside the flash. Then, when the camera triggers the remote the flash fires. I also use a cold shoe for a continuous LED video light. The cold shoe is attached to a mono pod, then the LED light sits on the shoe.

I have this exact audio interface and use it for my AKAI MPK 49 MIDI contoller. I use multiple music programs which this interface works very well with. The only small issue was the driver disc they supplied, you will need to go directly to TASCAM to get the latest drivers (no biggie) Great purchase!

Put the adapter on the record before you put it on the player. A simply google or YouTube search will clear up any questions.

Thats exactly what i use it for and it works great. The only thing you have to remember is that it will turn. your stereo signal into a mono signal, which most would find unacceptable for headphone monitoring in a studio scenario but if you just want to rock out in your headphones it will work in reverse alot more comfy than the bulky adapters you would get elsewhere.

I'm not sure. Go to the Tascam website and download the owner's manual for the DR-40. The owner's manual should show what AC adapter works with it. If it's the same then you will have your answer. If it's different, then go to Amazon to shop for it. Good luck!

As Caligula68 did, I returned that to Amazon too, because it doesn't work with Tascam DR-05. I really do not remember the plug model, but if they show rounded ones, should come as seen on the picture, no?
